EAST LANSING – You can’t win seven games in your sixth year and survive.
Not when you’ve lost your fan base — your most ardent supporters angry, the rest apathetic.
Nothing we wrote in the Lansing State Journal over the last couple years was read less online than stories written about Michigan State hockey. High school water polo was a hotter read. That is, unless, the story was about coach Tom Anastos’ job security.
Tuesday’s MSU hockey news will be well read and received. Anastos is out as the Spartans’ coach, a mutual decision based on two days of conversation, athletic director Mark Hollis said via text message Tuesday night.
